Welcome to jihabe-hulonu.sbs (“we”, “us”, or “our”). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your personal information when you use our website jihabe-hulonu.sbs (the “Site”). It is designed to comply with Singapore data privacy laws, including the Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (“PDPA”). We also follow applicable requirements of major technology and advertising platforms (Google, Meta/Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft/Bing, TikTok, etc.) regarding data use for analytics and marketing. Please read this Policy carefully to understand our practices.
We may collect the following categories of personal information from you (directly or via automated means) when you use our Site:
Note: We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. Our Site is not intended for users under 13, and if you are under 13, please do not provide any information. If we learn that we have collected personal data from a child under 13, we will delete it as required by the PDPA.
We use the personal information we collect for the following purposes:
We value your privacy and do not sell your personal information to third parties for money. However, we may share or disclose your information in the following situations (in accordance with applicable privacy laws):
Note on “Sale” of Personal Information: We do not exchange your personal data for money. However, the definition of “sale” under some laws includes sharing personal information with third parties for targeted advertising or other valuable consideration. In the context of digital advertising on our Site, some data sharing (for example, with advertising partners to serve personalized ads) could be considered a “sale” or “sharing” under those laws. We only engage in such data sharing as permitted by law and as described above, and you have the right to opt out of these practices as described in the next section.
We and our partners use cookies, beacons, pixels, and similar tracking technologies (“cookies”) on our Site to provide, personalize, analyze, and improve our services, as well as to deliver relevant advertisements. When you visit jihabe-hulonu.sbs, we or our third-party providers may set cookies on your browser that capture information about your activity.
Types of cookies we use include:
Your choices: On your first visit to our Site (and periodically thereafter), you may be presented with a cookie consent banner or tool to manage your cookie preferences. You can choose to accept or reject certain cookies (except strictly necessary cookies). You can also control cookies through your browser settings — for example, you can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to delete them. However, please note that if you block or delete cookies, some features of our Site may not function correctly. For more information about cookies and how to manage them, you can visit AllAboutCookies.org.
Global Privacy Control (GPC): We honor “Do Not Sell or Share” signals, such as the Global Privacy Control (GPC) signal, as required by applicable law. If your browser or device is configured to send a GPC signal, our Site will recognize it as an opt-out request for the sale or sharing of your personal information. See the Your Privacy Rights section below for more on how to exercise your opt-out rights.
Depending on your residency, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information. jihabe-hulonu.sbs is committed to honoring the rights of consumers as provided by law in Singapore and other jurisdictions with similar privacy laws. These rights may include:
How to Exercise Your Rights: To exercise any of the applicable rights described above, please contact us by using the information in the “Contact Us” section of this Policy below. Please specify which right you are seeking to exercise and provide us with enough information to verify your identity (for example, by providing identifying details we may already have, like your email address or account info). We will respond to your request within the timeframe required by law.
Authorized Agents: In some cases, you may designate an authorized agent to make a privacy rights request on your behalf. If you choose to use an authorized agent, we will take steps to verify the agent’s authority and also verify your identity directly, unless the agent has a legally sufficient power of attorney. Please have the authorized agent contact us with proof of their authorization and your identity.
Global Privacy Control: As noted above, we treat browser or device signals such as the Global Privacy Control as valid opt-out requests for the sale or sharing of personal data. You do not need to make a separate request to opt out of sale/sharing if you have GPC enabled on your browser; the signal will be processed automatically by our Site.
jihabe-hulonu.sbs does not use personal information for automated decision-making or profiling that produces legal or similarly significant effects on consumers. In other words, we do not make any purely algorithmic decisions about you that would substantially affect your rights or interests without human review. All important decisions involving your personal information are subject to human intervention. If this practice changes in the future, we will update this Privacy Policy to reflect that and to explain your rights regarding such processing.
We implement reasonable and appropriate security measures to protect the personal information we collect from unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or destruction. These measures include technical, administrative, and physical safeguards that are designed to protect the integrity and security of data. For example, we use encryption and secure protocols to transmit sensitive data where appropriate, maintain firewalls and access controls on our systems, and limit access to personal data to employees and contractors on a need-to-know basis. However, please be aware that no method of transmitting or storing data is completely secure, and while we strive to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. You should also take steps to protect your information by, for instance, keeping your account credentials private and logging out of the Site after your sessions.
We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it, or to satisfy legal, accounting, or reporting requirements. In determining retention periods, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the data, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure, the purposes of processing, and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means. We also consider applicable legal requirements (for example, certain laws may require us to keep transactional records for a certain time). Under Singapore's Personal Data Protection Act (PDPA), we are required to state that we do not keep your data longer than is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected. When personal information is no longer needed, we will either delete it or anonymize it (so that it can no longer be associated with you), unless we are required by law to keep it for a longer period.
jihabe-hulonu.sbs is based in the United States. If you are accessing our Site from outside the United States, please be aware that your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States and possibly other countries. These countries may have data protection laws that are different from those in your country of residence (and, in some cases, may not be as protective). We have taken appropriate safeguards to require that your personal information will remain protected in accordance with this Privacy Policy. This includes implementing standard contractual clauses (SCCs) for data transfers where required and, where applicable, relying on recognized transfer mechanisms to legally transfer data across borders. We also comply with other cross-border data transfer requirements as needed. By using our Site or providing us with information, you acknowledge the transfer of your personal data to the United States or other jurisdictions as described in this Policy.
Our Site may contain links to websites, content, or services that are hosted or provided by third parties (for example, links to our pages on services like LinkedIn, Facebook, X (Twitter), or other external websites). If you click on those links or otherwise engage with third-party services, you will be interacting with the third party, not jihabe-hulonu.sbs. This Privacy Policy only applies to jihabe-hulonu.sbs and our own Site. We are not responsible for the content or privacy practices of third-party websites to which our Site links, and we encourage you to read the privacy policies of those third-party websites before providing any information to them or through them. Inclusion of a link to a third-party site or service is for your convenience and does not imply that we endorse or have reviewed the third party’s policies or practices.
